Let’s start something new, shall we?
In keeping with my post on An Author vs. An Arthur, I’d like to start ARTHUR ALERTS.
Plagiarism is the cardinal sin. Authors do not plagiarize other writers’ materials and post that material as their own, either in print or on blogs. Authors always credit the actual author, and in the case of blogs, a link to the original site is posted.
However, an Arthur has been found on Google. The Bookworm (http://book-reviewsnews.blogspot.com/) has been plagiarizing book reviews from across the web. If you’ve posted a book review, you might want to go and see if it’s been plagiarized by the Bookworm.
If you find your work has been plagiarized by this individual, then go to http://www.google.com/blogger_dmca.html and file a complaint.
Meanwhile, spread the word . . .
